Our Finances
Finances always seem to be such a hot
topic. Everyone always seems to want to keep things secret. We have no idea why. If you are
honest about what you are doing, we think releasing financial information helps build trust. So here
goes:
Our foundation has a working relationship
with Festivals Unlimited, Inc., a privately held company with no one affiliated with our foundation. They
produce great events and are very experienced. Our foundation is legally responsible for everything at these
events. Bill Hulsizer signs the liquor permits and is personally responsible (of course we have a $3,000,000
insurance policy on each event, too). That's why he attends every event and is always on the lookout for any
potential issues. So far we've had none and we want to keep it that way. Our events are celebrations of
fine craft beers and life in general. We want everyone to be happy.
So, here are the high-level results of
our Beerfests. Prior to 2010, the beerfests were produced by Festivals Unlimited and we got a donation
from them. These were much smaller and we don't have full financial results for
them.
